Important safety instructions
Your projector is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information
technology equipment. However, to ensure safe use of this product, it is important that you
follow the instructions mentioned in this manual and marked on the product.
Safety Instructions
1.Please read this manual before you operate your projector. Save it for future
reference.
2.Do not look straight at the projector lens during operation. The intense light beam
may damage your eyes.
3.Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
4.Always open the lens shutter or remove the lens cap when the projector lamp is
on.
5.In some countries, the line voltage is NOT stable. This projector is designed to operate
safely within a mains voltage between 100 to 240 volts AC, but could fail if power
cuts or surges of ±10 volts occur. In areas where the mains voltage may fluctuate
or cut out, it is recommended that you connect your projector through a power
stabilizer, surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
6.Do not block the projection lens with any objects when the projector is under
operation as this could cause the objects to become heated and deformed or even
cause a fire. To temporarily turn off the lamp, press BLANK on the projector or
remote control.
7.The lamp becomes extremely hot during operation. Allow the projector to cool for
approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement.
8.Do not operate lamps beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of lamps
beyond the rated life could cause them to break on rare occasions.
9.Never replace the lamp assembly or any electronic components unless the projector is
unplugged.
10.Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall,
sustaining serious damage.
11.Do not attempt to disassemble this projector. There are dangerous high voltages inside
which may cause death if you should come into contact with live parts. The only user
serviceable part is the lamp which has its own removable cover.
Under no circumstances should you ever undo or remove any other covers. Refer
servicing only to suitably qualified professional service personnel.
12.Do not place this projector in any of the following environments.
- Space that is poorly ventilated or confined. Allow at least 50 cm clearance from walls
and free flow of air around the projector.
- Locations where temperatures may become excessively high, such as the inside of a
car with all windows rolled up.
- Locations where excessive humidity, dust, or cigarette smoke may contaminate optical
components, shortening the projector's life span and darkening the picture.
- Locations near fire alarms
- Locations with an ambient temperature above 40°C / 104°F
- Locations where the altitudes are higher than 3000 m (10000 feet).
3
13.Do not block the ventilation holes. If the ventilation holes are seriously obstructed,
overheating inside the projector may result in a fire.
- Do not place this projector on a blanket, bedding or any other soft surface.
- Do not cover this projector with a cloth or any other item.
- Do not place inflammables near the projector.
14.Always place the projector on a level, horizontal surface during operation.

more than 15 degrees front to back. Using the projector when it is not fully horizontal
may cause a malfunction of, or damage to, the lamp.
15.Do not stand the projector on end vertically. Doing so may cause the projector to fall
over, causing injury or resulting in damage to the projector.
16.Do not step on the projector or place any objects upon it. Besides probable physical
damage to the projector, doing so may result in accidents and possible injury.
17.Do not place liquids near or on the projector. Liquids spilled into the projector may
cause it to fail. If the projector does become wet, disconnect it from the power
supply's wall socket and call your local service center to have the projector serviced.
18.This product is capable of displaying inverted pictures for ceiling mount installation.
Use only qualified ceiling mount kit for mounting the projector and ensure it is
securely installed.
19.When the projector is under operation, you may sense some heated air and odor from
its ventilation grill. It is a normal phenomenon and not a product defect.
20.Do not use the Security bar for transporting or installation. It should be used with a
commercially available theft prevention cable.
Safety instructions for ceiling mounting of the
projector
We want you to have a pleasant experience using your projector, so we need to bring this
safety matter to your attention to prevent damage to person and property.
If you intend to mount your projector on the ceiling, we strongly recommend that you use a
proper fitting projector ceiling mount kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely
installed.
If you use an inappropriate projector ceiling mount kit, there is a safety risk that the
projector may fall from the ceiling due to an improper attachment through the use of the
wrong gauge or length screws.
You can purchase a projector ceiling mount kit from the place you purchased your projector.
We recommends that you also purchase a separate Kensington lock compatible security
cable and attach it securely to both the Kensington lock slot on the projector and the base of
the ceiling mount bracket. This will perform the secondary role of restraining the projector
should its attachment to the mounting bracket become loose.

Positioning your projector
Choosing a location
Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select.
Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power
outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your
equipment.
Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations:
1.Front Table
Select this location with the projector placed near
the floor in front of the screen. This is the most
common way to position the projector for quick
setup and portability.
2.Front Ceiling
Select this location with the projector suspended
upside-down from the ceiling in front of the
screen.
Purchase the projector ceiling mount kit from your
dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.
Set Front Ceiling in the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic > Projector Position menu after you turn
the projector on.
3.Rear Ceiling
Select this location with the projector suspended
upside-down from the ceiling behind the screen.
Note that a special rear projection screen and the
projector ceiling mounting kit are required for this
installation location.
Set Rear Ceiling in the SYSTEM SETUP: Basic
> Projector Position menu after you turn the
projector on.
4.Rear Table
Select this location with the projector placed near
the floor behind the screen.
Note that a special rear projection screen is
required.

Connecting a computer or monitor
Connecting a computer
The projector provides two VGA input sockets that allow you to connect them to both
IBM® compatibles and Macintosh® computers. A Mac adapter is needed if you are
connecting legacy version Macintosh computers.
To connect the projector to a notebook or desktop computer:
1.Take the supplied VGA cable and connect one end to the D-Sub output socket of the
computer.
2.Connect the other end of the VGA cable to the COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 signal input socket on the projector.
3.If you wish to use the remote paging function, take a USB cable and connect the
larger end to the USB port of the computer, and smaller end to the Type B USB socket
on the projector. See "Using the remote mouse control" on page 11 for details.
Many notebooks do not turn on their external video ports when connected to a projector.
Usually a key combo like FN + F3 or CRT/LCD key turns the external display on/off. Locate a
function key labeled CRT/LCD or a function key with a monitor symbol on the notebook. Press
FN and the labeled function key simultaneously. Refer to your notebook's documentation to
find your notebook's key combination.
Connecting a monitor
If you want to view your presentation close-up on a monitor as well as on the screen, you
can connect the MONITOR OUT signal output socket on the projector to an external
monitor with a VGA cable following the instructions below:
To connect the projector to a monitor:
1.Connect the projector to a computer as described in "Connecting a computer" on page
18.
2.Take a suitable VGA cable (only one supplied) and connect one end of the cable to the
D-Sub input socket of the video monitor.
Or if your monitor is equipped with a DVI input socket, take a VGA to DVI-A cable
and connect the DVI end of the cable to the DVI input socket of the video monitor.
3.Connect the other end of the cable to the MONITOR OUT socket on the projector.
•For the PJD5123p, the MONITOR OUT output only works when COMPUTER IN 1 is made to
the projector.
•For the PJD6223/RC6/SD7/PJD6253/PV731/FP586/PJD6553w, the MONITOR OUT output
only works when COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 is made to the projector.
•To use this connection method when the projector is in standby mode, turn on the Active
VGA Out function under the SYSTEM SETUP: Advanced > Standby Settings menu.
18
Connecting Video source devices
You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the
following output sockets:
•HDMI
•Component Video
•S-Video
•Video (composite)
You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above
connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method
you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the
projector and the Video source device as described below:
Best video quality
The best available video connection method is HDMI. If your source device is equipped
with a HDMI socket, you can enjoy uncompressed digital video quality.
See "Connecting an HDMI device" on page 20for how to connect the projector to a HDMI
source device and other details.
If no DVI-D source is available, the next best video signal is Component video (not to be
confused with composite video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component
video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of
choice in preference to (composite) video.
See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 20 for how to connect the
projector to a component video device.
Better video quality
The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video.
If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source
device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.
See "Connecting an S-Video source device" on page 21 for how to connect the projector to
an S-Video device.
Least video quality
Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than
optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods
described here.
See"Connecting a composite Video source device" on page 21for how to connect the
projector to a composite Video device.
Connecting audio
The projector has one built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio
functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. They are not
designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected in home
theater or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided), is mixed into a
common mono audio output through the projector speaker.
If you wish, you can make use of the projector (mixed mono) speaker in your presentations,
and also connect separate amplified speakers to the Audio Out socket of the projector. The
audio output is a mixed mono signal and controlled by the projector Volume and Mute
settings.
19
If you have a separate sound system, you will most likely want to connect the audio output
of your Video source device to that sound system, instead of to the mono audio projector.
Connecting an HDMI device
You should use an HDMI cable when making connection between the projector and HDMI
devices.
To connect the projector to an HDMI device:
1.Take an HDMI cable and connect one end to the HDMI-output port of the video
device.
2.Connect the other end of the cable to the HDMI-input port on the projector.
•In the unlikely event that you connect the projector to a DVD player via the projector’s
HDMI input and the projected picture displays wrong colors, please change the color
space to YUV. See "Changing Color Space" on page 27 for details.
•The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See"Connecting audio" on page 19 for details.
•The HDMI input port is only available on the PJD6223/RC6/SD7/PJD6253/PV731/FP586/
PJD6553w series.
Connecting a Component Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused Component Video
output sockets available:
•If so, you can continue with this procedure.
•If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to a Component Video source device:
1.Take a Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable and connect the end with 3
RCA type connectors to the Component Video output sockets of the Video source
device. Match the color of the plugs to the color of the sockets; green to green, blue to
blue, and red to red.
2.Connect the other end of the Component Video to VGA (D-Sub) adaptor cable (with a
D-Sub type connector) to the COMPUTER IN 1 or COMPUTER IN 2 socket on the
projector.
•The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See"Connecting audio" on page 19 for details.
•If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
•
20
Connecting an S-Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has an unused S-Video output socket
available:
•If so, you can continue with this procedure.
•If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to an S-Video source device:
1.Take an S-Video cable and connect one end to the S-Video output socket of the Video
source device.
2.Connect the other end of the S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO socket on the projector.
•The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See"Connecting audio" on page 19 for details.
•If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
•If you have already made a Component Video connection between the projector and this
S-Video source device using Component Video connections, you need not connect to this
device using an S-Video connection as this makes an unnecessary second connection of
poorer picture quality. See"Connecting Video source devices" on page 19 for details.
Connecting a composite Video source device
Examine your Video source device to determine if it has a set of unused composite Video
output sockets available:
•If so, you can continue with this procedure.
•If not, you will need to reassess which method you can use to connect to the device.
To connect the projector to a composite Video source device:
1.Take a Video cable and connect one end to the composite Video output socket of the
Video source device.
2.Connect the other end of the Video cable to the VIDEO socket on the projector.
•The projector is only capable of playing mixed mono audio, even if a stereo audio input is
connected. See"Connecting audio" on page 19 for details.
•If the selected video image is not displayed after the projector is turned on and the correct
video source has been selected, check that the Video source device is turned on and
operating correctly. Also check that the signal cables have been connected correctly.
•You need only connect to this device using a composite Video connection if Component
Video and S-Video inputs are unavailable for use. See"Connecting Video source devices"

Using Screen Color
In the situation where you are projecting onto a colored surface such as a painted wall which
may not be white, the Screen Color feature can help correct the projected picture’s colors to
prevent possible color difference between the source and projected pictures.
To use this function, go to the DISPLAY > Screen Color menu and press / to select a
color which is closest to the color of the projection surface. There are several precalibrated
colors to choose from: Whiteboard, Greenboard, and Blackboard.
This function is only available when a PC type input signal is selected.
Fine-tuning the image quality in user modes
According to the detected signal type, there are some user-definable functions available
when User 1 or User 2 mode is selected. You can make adjustments to these functions
based on your needs.

The higher the value, the sharper the picture becomes. The lower the value, the softer the
picture becomes.
Adjusting Brilliant Color
Highlight the PICTURE > Brilliant Color menu and press /.
This feature utilizes a new color-processing algorithm and system level enhancements to
enable higher brightness while providing truer, more vibrant colors in the projected picture.
It enables a greater than 50% brightness increase in mid-tone images, which are common in
video and natural scenes, so the projector reproduces images in realistic and true colors. If
you prefer images with that quality, select On. If you don’t need it, select Off.
When Off is selected, the Color Temperature function is not available.
Selecting a Color Temperature
Highlight the PICTURE > Color Temperature menu and press /.
The options available for color temperature* settings vary according to the signal type
selected.
1.T1: With the highest color temperature, T1 makes the image appear the most bluish
white than other settings.
2.T2: Makes images appear bluish white.
3.T3: Maintains normal colorings for white.
4.T4: Makes images appear reddish white.

*About color temperatures:
RED
BLUE
GREEN
Yellow
Cyan
Magenta
There are many different shades that are considered to be "white" for various purposes. One
of the common methods of representing white color is known as the “color temperature”. A
white color with a low color temperature appears to be reddish white. A white color with a
high color temperature appears to have more blue in it.
Color Management
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management
provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color reproduction, should
you require it.
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be used
to test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors, etc., you can project any image
from the disc on the screen and enter the Color Management menu to make adjustments.
To adjust the settings:
1.Go to the DISPLAY menu and highlight Color Management.
2.Press MODE/ENTER on the projector or Enter on the remote control and the Color Management page is displayed.
3.Highlight Primary Color and press / to select a color from among Red, Yellow,
Green, Cyan, Blue, or Magenta.
4.Press to highlight Hue and press / to select its range. Increase in the range
will include colors consisted of more proportions of its two adjacent colors.
Please refer to the illustration to the right for
how the colors relate to each other.
For example, if you select Red and set its
range at 0, only pure red in the projected
picture will be selected. Increasing its range
will include red close to yellow and red close
to magenta.
5.Press to highlight Saturation and adjust
its values to your preference by pressing /
. Every adjustment made will reflect to the
image immediately.
For example, if you select Red and set its
value at 0, only the saturation of pure red will be affected.
Saturation is the amount of that color in a video picture. Lower settings produce less
saturated colors; a setting of “0” removes that color from the image entirely. If the saturation
is too high, that color will be overpowering and unrealistic.
6.Press to highlight Gain and adjust its values to your preference by pressing /
. The contrast level of the primary color you select will be affected. Every
adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately.
7.Repeat steps 3 to 6 for other color adjustments.
8.Make sure you have made all of the desired adjustments.
9.Press MENU/EXIT on the projector or Exit on the remote control to exit and save the
settings.
